What is the best method of using DDAVP for bedwetting?


DDVAP is obtainable as a nasal spray but it is currently under FDA restriction and not recommended for use in the treatment of primary enuresis.

DDAVP pill is usually taken at the lowest dose just before bed time. The dose is gradually increased every 3-4 days until the desired response is obtained. The oral pill is placed underneath the tongue where it usually dissolves very fast. One should not take the pill with a glass of water. Water should be limited at night as one is trying to prevent excess urine formation.
